HoRNet ADDA – Experience the Soul of Vintage Digital Sound

Immerse yourself in the unique character of early digital gear with HoRNet ADDA, the advanced bitcrusher plugin designed to replicate the vintage sound of analog-to-digital (ADC) and digital-to-analog (DAC) converters. HoRNet ADDA brings the gritty, lo-fi charm and warmth of late ’80s and early ’90s digital sound straight into your DAW.

Bitcrusher Magic

HoRNet ADDA comes with dedicated bitcrusher modules for both the ADC and DAC stages, allowing you to precisely reduce bit depth from clear 24-bit audio all the way down to crunchy 4-bit textures. With multiple selectable resampling algorithms and frequencies, ADDA offers unmatched flexibility to add digital grit, lo-fi vibes, and vintage authenticity to your productions.

Warmth & Texture

Beyond its powerful bitcrushing features, HoRNet ADDA also includes meticulously modeled analog input and output stages. These emulations bring genuine warmth, harmonic richness, and even adjustable analog hiss to enhance your bitcrushed sounds. The intuitive pre-emphasis and de-emphasis filters allow you to shape your audio with surgical precision, both before and after the bitcrushing process.

High-Quality Processing

HoRNet ADDA also offers up to 4x oversampling, ensuring the highest quality processing no matter your sample rate. The “auto” option guarantees sufficient bandwidth for high-quality processing, regardless of your DAW’s settings.

Optimized Performance

We’ve optimized the algorithm for efficiency, meaning ADDA is lightweight on your CPU, letting you build a virtual multi-output vintage sampler with ease—without taking a significant hit on performance.

The interface is available in both light and dark modes, adjusting to your system preferences for a seamless experience that integrates with your environment.
